Speed limit on Moulsoe Road

Speeding worries have been around in Cranfield I'm sure ever since the first horseless carriage lumbered up Marston Hill and parped around the High Street. And as cars got faster the local road layout was perfect for the petrol heads - long straight stretches saying "Burn me up". College Road, Crawley Road, Mill Road and the High Street, in the village itself, have all attracted the wrong type of driver. Moulsoe Road before the Nissan Roundabout in the early 1990s was particularly inviting. 

It still is. 

Therefore I, personally,  welcome the proposal for a 50 mph limit in the notice from CBC below. There is supposed to be extra information and plans on the link http://www.centralbedfordshire.gov.uk/public-statutory-notices/public-statutory-notices.aspx but there is nothing up there at the moment. The letter received by the PC has 15 August as a date so it might be worth looking then.

This will be much safer on Moulsoe Road especially as there are so many students walking in the road. Any idea when the pavement is going to be put in?
